The BARGE -how-to-fly-a-BARGE- - Captain - 04-28-2009
this thread I made for those people who some day want to fly a barge,
even I am interested,
so I thought, lets make a How-to-fly-a-barge instruction vid
about what it Can and what it cant do,
cruise, you can
http://www.xfire.com/video/ad9e3/
tradelanes, yes you can,
http://www.xfire.com/video/ad9e5/
read the discription in the vids,
Jumpholes, you CANT use them
http://www.xfire.com/video/ad9db/
Jumpgates, yes you can, but its extreem difficult to do,
http://www.xfire.com/video/ada1f/
you cant dock on planets,
you can dock on bases, havent tested them all,
also send here your requests, for what a barge maybe can or cant, I ask 1 mill per vid request
send it towards "Kaap.de.goede.Hoop"

What is that big ship for?
Its parameters are... really huge. What kind of ID is needed, to fly those? And the cargo space? Is this truth?

It's not available (yet) in Multiplayer and I don't believe it ever will and if
probably just for RP purposes.
It's "sold" at the Guard Station in Bastille prison system where's no way
in or out except you get beamed/jailed there.
If you want to test it do it in Single Player mode.
And yes, the stats are true, it's 25k cargospace.

Edit:
The Barge - infocard
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT PLANETARY LANDING UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Designed and manufactured to serve in dark corners of space where the closest friendly base is but a memory; the Barge is a mobile factory, station and refinery designed to operate independently of external support..
Staggering operational and manufacturing costs prevent vessels of this type from being used for any but the most specific and urgent need, as its sheer bulk of size and intense jump hole destabilizing gravity well prevents it from being utilized in any environment but deep space.
Stats:
Gun/Turret Mounts: 0/7
Armor: 500000
Cargo Space: 25000
Max Batteries/NanoBots: 800/800
Power Output: 90000
Max. Impulse Speed: 25
Equipment Mounts: CD, CM
Price: 502.000.000

A little side note is it can't planet dive as far as I know.
Think it is for rp purposes on server, I remember 500mil being the tag for it? (Along with the rp it will be used for)
I'd love to fly one, if only to see the size difference between it and normal ships. The little transport docked at it makes me want to.:D

The only three purposes I can imagine to have it:
a) on an RP event
b) as a player-factions home base - not allowed to be used for trading
c) as a dockable base in outer space instead of one of the regular base models
it would ruin the whole economy if regular players were allowed to fly/play it.
